No, and it is not a substitute for it. Better Half is a practice space — somewhere to rehearse a conversation before you have it, and to look at what happened after. If you are working with a therapist, this sits alongside that work. If you are in crisis, please contact your local emergency number or a crisis line.

No. It is deliberately not built to be your friend, and it will tell you so. The simulation does not have feelings, does not need you, and is not trying to keep you here. Our goal is that you close it and go have the real conversation.

Frontier models from established providers, chosen for how well they hold a position under pressure rather than how agreeable they are. Conversation text is sent to those providers to generate a response — the security page names them.

See the pricing page. There is a pre-sale rate while we are early.

We are not going to give you a date we cannot stand behind. The practice space works today; connection is the next layer and is still being built.

Better Half is not a crisis service and cannot help in an emergency. Contact your local emergency number, or a crisis line in your country. That is the right call every time, and we would rather say so plainly than bury it.
